Large bird cages

Written by:
At one time or another we have all heard the phrase, "Free as a bird." In the wild, birds are free, flying from tree to tree. At home, we should try to mimic that environment to the greatest degree possible. In general, you should buy the largest cage your budget will allow that will safely accommodate your feathered friend.

In order for birds to be comfortable, they need ample space. Your bird should be able to spread its wings easily and move freely from perch to perch. Just like you and I, birds require exercise. It stands to reason, then, that larger or more active birds will need larger bird cages.

A macaw, for example, requires a cage that is at least three feet long and five feet wide! Amazons, African grays, Conures, and Cockatoos also require large cages, though not as large as the macaw. Before making your purchase, make sure that you have enough room available in your home.

Large bird cages are available in a variety of materials, which include wood, metal, iron, stainless steel, and acrylic. You can choose based on an unlimited number of factors, but convenience should definitely be considered. Your large bird cage should be cleaned regularly, and stainless steel or metal cages are usually the easiest to clean.

Large bird cages are available at almost all pet stores and specialty bird stores. They can also be ordered online.
